Broker Biography
Introduction
The single most important business decision of your lifetime will be when you decide to sell your business. The Value of your business will most likely represent a significant portion of your net worth. The thought of selling your business can be emotionally taxing and often times Sellers are not able to remain objective and realistic about the value of their business. The purpose engaging a business broker is to take the emotions out of the equation and allow an experienced Business Broker to facilitate the transaction to the close. Do you have an exit strategy in place? If not, do you understand the benefits of a well-planned exit strategy? If you are in a partnership, do you have a buy-sell agreement? When was the last time you had a Valuation? Have you discussed your tax implications with your accountant in the event of the sale of your business? These are some of the questions only an experienced business broker will ask.
